1 A collaborative approach to managing Diabetes in Long Term Care

2 Diabetes is a top three disease state in OMNI homes Lack of standardized diabetes care for residents in LTC Lack of Evidence Based Guidelines in this population Individualized needs of LTC community Flexibility, Quality of Life (QOL) Awareness of increased co-morbidity in the LTC population Focus on non-palliative residents living with diabetes in LTC Limited collaboration between disciplines MD, Nursing, Pharmacy, Nutrition, Administration, etc.

3 The Diabetes Advisory Team (DAT) formed in the fall of 2012 Multidisciplinary Multi-organizational Focused on diabetes, co-morbidities and residents living with them Our Team

5 OMNI Diabetes Protocol Clinical Extrapolation from existing guidelines CDA, AACE and others Consensus of DAT Evidence Informed and Aware Guidelines Key Principles Set individual goals for therapy for each resident Incorporate Best Practice/Evidence Based Guidelines where appropriate Focus on safety and improved QOL for residents Measure! Measure! Measure!

6 OMNI Diabetes Protocol The Order Set 1. The Nursing Admission/Annual Assessment 2. Individualized Goals 3. Glucose Control Individualize resident targets based on co-morbidity, life expectancy and risk of hypoglycemia Individualized Glucose Monitoring AHA use similar-to-aace guidelines Formal Hypoglycemia Protocol Metformin 1 st line +/- AHA with low hypoglycemia risk 4. Scheduled Laboratory Testing 5. Blood Pressure Management Individual goals Awareness of orthostatic hypotension and issues in frail elderly Laboratory screening for safety in RAS inhibition

7 OMNI Diabetes Protocol The Order Set 6. Cardiovascular Risk Factor Modification Smoking Lipids Exercise, Nutrition, Lifestyle 7. Management of Co-morbid Conditions & Complications of Diabetes Individualized goals Screening where appropriate Medical management Access to specialty referral where appropriate 8. Nutritional Guidelines 9. Insulin Dosing Guidelines for Non-eating and Eating Residents 10. Safety Parameters

8 Safety Parameters: Blood Glucose Monitoring Protocol Frail and elderly residents are at increased risk of severe/harmful reactions to hypoglycemia Focus is on reducing the risk of hypoglycemia Avoid symptomatic hyperglycemia Sick Day Medications Standardized Protocols Empower front line staff MD supervision Regular Review OMNI Diabetes Protocol The Order Set

10 Continued Use of High Risk Therapies Reduce Hypoglycemic Events Order Set Medication Utilization Statistics Resistance to Change In Practice Standardized Care Home-based Diabetes Champions Standardized Policies / Procedures Knowledge Gaps Understanding and Compliance with Protocol Education & Protocol / Order Set Pre/Post Quiz Results High Rate of Falls & Wounds Reduce ER Transfers Monitoring Protocol Tracking of ER Visits Constrained Nursing Time Reduced Workload Order Set Time-Motion Analysis Unclear Diagnosis & Suboptimal Management of Complications Consistent Screening & Monitoring Stabilize A1C On-going Health Monitoring Tracking of Health Monitoring

11 Currently at one of our pilot homes Inconsistent management of hypoglycemia 121 hypoglycemic events identified in one home 8 were considered severe High rate of hyperglycemia Progressive increase in prescription therapy

13 Currently at one of our pilot homes

14 OMNI Diabetes Protocol

15 Projected outcomes: We will improve the quality of life of our residents living with diabetes We will reduce nursing time spent managing diabetes issues We have started with two pilot homes We will implement in 17 homes by the end of 2013 A sincere thank you to our Diabetes Advisory Team without each and every member none of this would be possible A sincere thank you to Boehringer Ingleheim for partnering with OMNI Health Care to bring this project to life
